Slightly more diversity would be of help. The faith based information was quite sparse.

Initially I was not sure how useful an online course would be . I was living and working abroad at the time,so studying remotely was the only way of gaining a recognised qualification. I was pleasantly surprised at how interesting and challenging and informative the course was .

This is the second course with you 20years apart, it is because of the positive experience I had that I chose you again. I still have the second part of the diploma to do but I feel excited about this not stressed.

I said most of what I wanted to say in my rating for the course overall. I found this module particularly helpful because I not only learnt a lot about grief and bereavement counselling but a lot about myself as well.

This is an exceptional course and I would fully recommend this for any individual who is interested in Clinical and Pastoral Counselling or indeed any of the individual very informative four certificate modules which make up the Diploma course.
